This is not upstream bug. I have tried several other distributions and gtkfilechooser works just fine. This must be bug in Ubuntu.
Here's easy way to reprosude it in Edgy, Feisty and Gutsy: 1. Launch example gedit. 2. Write somenthing if you want to. Click "File" and "Save" or "Save as". 3. Click "Name:" field and write example "test.txt", or just leave it "Unsaved Document 1". 4. Click your home directory twice from the "Places" list. 5. Click "Exampless" directory twice. 6. Click your home directory again twice from the "Places" list. 7. File name(test.txt or Unsaved Document 1) disappears and is replaced for very short time with first file's name from the "Examples" directory, before it disappears completely. Very annoying and can also be reprodused with livecd's. -- [Feisty] File save dialog delets filename when changing directory https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/93396 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
